True, svn revisions numbers do not match commits. We probably have to switch to a different mechanism for that feature. One that comes to my mind is to find the number of commit messages between the current revision and the translation's revision using 'svn log'. That, however, can be very CPU consuming. Another option is to go to time-based checks: checkout the timestamp for the original (English) commit and compare with the timestamp of the translation's commit. If it's over N weeks warn if it is over M weeks complain. Regards Javier
